The LA Daily News once described Matt Schofield using the following sentence. “In Schofield, the UK has produced the best Blues guitarist from any country in decades…head and shoulders above the herd”. Never has a few words been so accurate. Matt has justifiably been ranked alongside notable legendary players, including Peter Green and Eric Clapton – with a level of playing and talent that saw him inducted into the British Blues Hall of Fame.
In this episode, The Captain sits down with Matt to talk growing up in Manchester, musical inspirations, his career to date, and what he’s getting up to in the future. There’s even time for a quick rig tour and a demonstration of his truly mind-boggling guitar skills!

This time, the Captain isn’t meeting someone known for their guitar playing ability. No, Christoph Kemper is far more influential.

As you might guess from the name, Christoph is the founder of the company Kemper, who make the guitar gamechanger that is the Profiler – a modelling amp able to create any sound you could possibly imagine. The Captain finds out more about the man behind one of the most influential products in modern music.

The Captain was extremely excited about this one. Old school bluesman Walter Trout is an exceptional guitarist with an ear for a big tune and an inspirational back story.
He made it out of the suburbs growing up on sixties jazz and the big names in rock and roll – eventually joining rock legend John Mayall’s band. Walter Trout recovered from hardship battling drugs and alcohol, and is now over 30 years sober, still on the road with his band and an enviable discography behind him.

During his European clinic tour, Pete stopped by at the Andertons studio and sat down with The Captain to discuss his journey to guitar greatness, as well as his long-time association with Suhr guitars.

There's far more to Mark Agnesi than just that whole "play authentic" thing (you know what we're talking about). As the General Manager at Norman's Rare Guitars for almost a decade, Agnesi made his name presenting their popular 'Guitar of the Day' YouTube series; becoming a mainstay on their well-subscribed channel.
Head-hunted by Gibson in early 2019, Agnesi was appointed the company's Director of Brand Experience; shortly after Gibson unveiled its back-to-basics, ‘Core Collection’ guitar lineup. As a life-long fan of Gibson, Mark's passion for the brand was evident when he spoke with The Captain back in early October.
Discussing his personal collection of instruments and the difficult decision to relocate to Nashville from Los Angeles, Mark also promised plenty of exciting new products from Gibson. But Mark was particularly excited about the gear that Epiphone will be launching in early 2020. We'll have to wait until the NAMM Show to see what they have in store!
